ryan Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 For this week we've got a new version of ProcessWire 3.x, version 3.0.9. This version adds some useful UI enhancements in the admin that were originally envisioned by members of the ProcessWire community. ProcessWire 3.0.9 and also has a few other refactoring, bug fixes and tweaks. We've also got more info on the new version of ProDrafts released yesterday. https://processwire.com/blog/posts/processwire-3.0.9-adds-new-long-click-and-save-actions/ 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Rockett Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Nice update, Ryan! My only suggestion would be to change "Publish + Exit" to "Publish + Close" as "Exit" seems a little much, if you know what I mean... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elabx Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Great update! I love the modal edit, it is just such a great addition!! Makes using the tree view really smooth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jugibur Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I'm curious every week, what surprises you will pull out of the hat – feeling ProcessWire is a "living" thing, growing and growing... ProDrafts looks so great, especially the side-by-side preview – so let's do a purchase... EDIT: +1 for adding support for Repeater / Repeater Matrix in one of the next versions... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergio Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Nice update, Ryan! My only suggestion would be to change "Publish + Exit" to "Publish + Close" as "Exit" seems a little much, if you know what I mean... I agree. And I'd like to suggest "Publish + Add new" to "Publish + Add Another" as it is a bit more clear in suggesting: "Another of the same template". One more thing, maybe it's a good thing to change the button to be like this example attached. Not advanced users may find it easier to understand. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teppo Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 One more thing, maybe it's a good thing to change the button to be like this example attached. Not advanced users may find it easier to understand. This is quite a change to current implementation, but I'll have to agree. A split button is widely used and well known pattern, while the delayed dropdown we've got now is pretty much unknown, at least to me.. and probably most regular users. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 +1 for split button. @Ryan - they have those in getuikit 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacmaes Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Another +1 for the much better-known split button pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcartier Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I also think a split button is a more familiar choice of the UI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Gretsky Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I got long-click actions working on view and edit on the tree page. But long-click save button actions on page edit screen do not work for me. A bug or me doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndZyk Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Hello Ivan, there is no long-click action on the save button. Only on the edit and view buttons in the page lister, as you already know. I think you mixed it up, with the long-hover over the save button to get more options. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szabesz Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Hello Ivan, there is no long-click action on the save button. Only on the edit and view buttons in the page lister, as you already know. I think you mixed it up, with the long-hover over the save button to get more options. So this is a nice example of the confusing nature of any "long-do-this-or-that" interface constructs. I never liked them. They are used all over the place (tv front panel controls, watches, touch screen devices) but it does not mean it is an intuitive control method. Luckily the virtual screen of a computer is not limited to a few number of buttons, so I do not understand why this confusing way of controlling things should be used at all. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
